Passed away peacefully in Christchurch. Beloved husband to Janice Lee of 63 years. Dearly loved father and father-in-law of Anthony and Jo, Sandra and Hoterene, Jason and Lydia, and the late Martyn. Treasured Grandad of James, Sarah, Luke, Maxine, and the late Zirconia, and a cherished Great-Grandad.

"Do not stand at my grave and weep.
I am not there, I do not sleep.
Do not stand at my grave and cry.
I am not there, I did not die."

Janice and family wish to sincerely thank everyone for the kind messages, calls, flowers, and visits received following the passing of John. A special thank you to the healthcare staff for their dedicated care. Please accept this as a personal expression of our gratitude to you all.

Such a kind and welcoming presence at the Bottle Lake golf club. Always had a smile and showed an interest in your game long after he had stopped playing. Seeing John and Jan doing the gardens on the course while bringing along their sandwiches and flask was a regular sight for me and many others. He was an absolute legend and I will miss his warmth and humour.
